BANDUNGGGGG

Went to bandung for work this week - from sunday afternoon til thursday. This times, definitely I took train instead of flight :)

This is the first time I took Argo Gede to go to bandung. Surprised, it quite fun - the train was on time, clean but too bad, the two toilets can not be used hehehe
If not, it will be perfect !!
Last time, I took train was a year a go to Cirebon, and that was very awful and traumatic experience and I swear that I will find any way to avoid train...:)
And i love Bandung train station, it's far far better than Jakarta. It's old building and definitely more friendly.

One thing that i can't stand at Bandung - that's way I avoid to go there often - THE FOOOOOD !!!!
Oh my God, oh my dear God, rusak semua diet programs :(
bisa gila makan melulu di sana ..banyak variasi plus murah murah bow

On first night, we - me, retna and my client, Fonita - had dinner at Sapu Lidi, Cihampelas. The place was quite good, cozy and peaceful. The foods were not "wow" but still okeh - or apa kita emang laper yah hehehe
Fonita ordered nasi timbel complete - looks good, Retna ordered soto mie - not so appetizing, while i had bakwan malang - very generous portion.

Monday, Asti and Novi joined w/ us. For lunch, we had Ampera, Sundanesse food. Even the sayur asam (sour soup) color was so weird - merah merah aneh gitu - but quite good, and tempe gorengnya enak banget. Then we had batagor Kingsley for 3 o'clock snacking time. Enakk, I decided to bring some to mas Hima on thursday. Dinner, we went to Atmosphere. The place was very cozy, both indoor or outdoor - perfect space for dating or dinner with friends - and the waitress was friendly and thank you ... quite fast on serving, something that rare here. Cause I still full, I only ordered goulash soup - not so hot and not so good - but ended up we shared our order together hehehe, means I had a few slices of chez omelette - 2 bites of lamb chop - taste lumayan and 4 french fries hehehe
Back to Holiday Inn, i took a long bath in hot water to prepared a long and painful day tomorrow, gosh!

Tuesday, bombardir with sms and calls from office and my lovely media partners :) Little bit screw up while did the research - maap yah Asti !!
Had too many coffee so my maag was kambuh. Lunch, tried soto bandung - clear soto with beansprout, beef, fried soya bean, and soy sauce - it's was good! Dinner at Toko You, always luv the food there, had kodok goreng saus mentega, hmmm yummy banget. Checked email back at hotel and get frustated by the connection - lambreta lamborghini - watched American Idol and thought maybe need to stop by at the office on thursday night or friday. But friday is holiday, not sure that its open, even OB need day off kan

Wednesday, tried segala daya upaya to concentrated - kon-sen-tra-si....God knows I tried.. lunch with the Kupat Tahu. We had dinner @ SIERRA, Jl. Bukit Pakar Timur 33, Telp:(022)251-2240.
It's on the way to The Valley dkk. The place is quite good even the view is not as beautiful as I imagined. The waitress is helpful and seemed had a good knowledge of the menu. The menu is vary, from western, japanesse, and bit of Indonesian. A lot of fresh juices choices, love it !
The food presentation is lovely and appetizing. And the prices, very very very fair, i was speechless !! :p

I was tired, but can not sleep, benci bangetttt kalo gini :(

Finished worked on thursday -- finally, it's so depressing listened to all the respondents life and problems :)

and I miss my Jakarta already

thanks for Fonita to provide us with amazing dinners there and Mbak Susy who make it happened hehehehe
